Paperback. Zustand: Good. Women of all ages want to make others happy--it's just in a woman's nature, isn't it? But what happens when that need to please goes wrong, and a woman keeps pushing herself harder while simultaneously ignoring her own needs?

Using this life-long lens, readers will learn valuable ways of looking at their interpersonal relationships and will acquire tools to become more resilient.…
